Still need help with this I'm afraid,
would it help if I use SUMPRODUCT to match the names in some way? I am using
the following in a different sheet.
SUMPRODUCT(--(p2e_Advisor_Last_Name="Thompson"),--(p2e_Advisor_First_Name="Rob"))
could it be inserted into
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1!A2:A100=A2),--(MONTH(Sheet1!D2:D100)=4),Sheet1!
F2:F100) in order to find the names that match???
Sheet1!A2:A100 is the part that the names are in two columns (A & B) and A2
is the cell containing the full name to match to.

any help gratefully received
thanks
